Hv Grt Wknd!!

A friend
writes emails like a third-grader…I think he has the right/write idea.

When I get
a message from Steve it might say, “How you?” or “Hvng fun?’

His style
has been a joke between us and among our friends for years.

Increasingly,
I believe he might have a great strategy. While Steve uses his concise style
when writing to friends I’m suggesting you keep a short and sweet style when
writing work emails.

Take a few
seconds to compose the email in a way that makes it easier and faster for the
recipient to read and respond. Mark Twain once said, “Please excuse the length
of this letter, I didn’t have time to write a shorter one.”

However, it’s
ok to go crazy and make your messages to friends as long as you’d like.
